Biovea L-Tyrosine 500mg – Tyrosine, Package 100 caps

What is this and where does it come from?

L-tyrosine is a non-essential organic amino acid that is a building block of protein. It is an organic amino acid due to the presence of a carbon atom in its composition.

It is a precursor to the neurotransmitter dopamine, as well as a precursor to the hormones norepinephrine and epinephrine. L-tyrosine is also a precursor to the skin pigment melanin. The body can produce L-tyrosine from the amino acid phenylalanine. Foods rich in L-tyrosine include animal meat, wheat products, oatmeal, and seafood.

How much should be taken?

At this point, no clear dosing guidelines have yet been established, so it is best to do what is known as “tolerance mapping.”

Take a small dose for a week, pay attention to the benefits and side effects, and increase the dose until the benefits increase and the side effects are minimized. Over time, the two will converge and you will reach the optimal dose.

Many protein powders on the market are fortified with amino acids, including tyrosine. With this in mind, pay close attention to how much tyrosine you are consuming from all sources. Individuals suffering from psychiatric conditions should consult a qualified physician before using supplemental L-tyrosine.

If you do not feel comfortable after the procedure described above, it is always best to follow the directions prescribed on the product label.

Method of use: Take 1 or more capsules daily on an empty stomach.
